One of the best technical / charting signals around, and one that is still relatively obscure in terms of trader / investor knowledge is the unfilled gap to the upside through the 200 day moving average. This is wha we were treated to at Oracle Coalfields (ORCP) in September after an extended base over the previous year between 1.50p and 2p.
